Without the Macedonian pursuit, Baizhong felt pity again.

His merit points increased to about 160,000 and then stopped again. But now he has to continue to fulfill his duties as an envoy and go to the west. He will consider how to earn merit points in the west later.

After walking for several more days, they finally entered Rome.

"This is Jerusalem. I would like to ask Mr. Wu An to rest in the city for a few days. I will go back to Rome tomorrow and report to Mr. Wu An about your situation." Tours said enthusiastically.

He returned to his own place, his home court, and changed from his previous decadence.

When the city lord of Jerusalem learned that the Qin Dynasty in the east also sent envoys to the west, he was as enthusiastic as Tours and sent all the best things to Baizhong and Ying Shu.

Bai Zhong was not polite to them and accepted as many as they came.

It was temporarily arranged for Bai and Zhong to rest in the city. Tours then said goodbye and sent back the news here.

Welcoming the Eastern envoys back to Rome was also a credit to them.

After being busy for so long, I can finally rest comfortably.

The last time I lay down so comfortably was when I was in Parthia.

"My dear, I heard Tours say that there is no emperor in Rome?" Ying Shu was still shocked by this.

Bai Zhong recalled their political system. At this time, Rome was in the republican era, and there was indeed no emperor. He nodded and said: "Rome only has the Senate, and the people in it are all nobles. The Senate elects two consuls, who are their highest officials."

Sir, the two consuls have equal powers and their term is one year. When it expires, a new consul will be elected through the vote of the Hundred Council of the Senate."

If he remembered correctly, the monarchy in Rome seemed to have been restored during the time of Octavian.

What kind of democracy and republic is Rome pursuing now?

This sounds very advanced, but in fact it is not completely advanced.

At this time, Rome implemented a three-dimensional slave hierarchy. Those who really had the right to vote and be elected were citizens of one yuan. These people were basically aristocrats.

Only nobles are eligible to be elected consuls or other officials.

"They also call this system the separation of powers." Bai Zhong said again.

Ying Shu still couldn't understand why power had to be divided. She shook her head and said, "This place is really strange."

Baizhong said: "When we conquer the west and it becomes our Daqin territory, we will change all the strange things."

Ying Shu smiled and said: "This is good!"

As for the separation of powers, they have temporarily given up.

Here they can take a break and relax.

night.

The city lord came again, and he was responsible for entertaining Bai and Zhong until Turs returned.

Bai Zhong has no objection to this.

While in Xianyang, he and Tours learned a lot of ancient Greek language, and they had no problem communicating and did not need a translator.

After a brief chat with the city lord, they went to a luxurious hall to dine and have a banquet.

Banquets exist in both East and West.

Eastern and Western cultures also have similarities.

"Envoy of Great Qin, this is a unique wine here in our country. You will definitely not be able to drink it in Great Qin."

The city lord asked people to pour wine for Bai and Zhong.

Bai Zhong nodded and said, "Thank you City Lord for your hospitality!"

After saying this, he raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.

Wine is not only found in the East, but also in the West.

For example, many ancient Greek tragedies and comedies were sacrifices to the god of wine.

However, Western wine has a different flavor from Eastern wine.

In the era before distillation, the difference between the wines was not very big. They were bland and tasteless, and there was no aroma of wine.

The city lord was drinking and toasting, and chatting with Bai Zhong about their Western customs.

Bai Zhongke chatted with the city lord as he pleased.

But before they chatted for long, the city lord got drunk.

Bai Zhong and Ying Shu have longevity secrets that can dissolve alcohol. I don't know how long I haven't experienced what it feels like to be drunk.

Now that the city lord is drunk, the banquet has come to an end.

Bai Zhong did not go back to rest, but went outside to take a look at the night view in the west.

Westerners don't have curfews, and you can still see markets, various pedestrians, and lights at night.

“The environment here is pretty good.”

Ying Shu said.

Bai Zhong said casually: "It's just that it looks good here."

Behind any glamorous phenomenon, there is filth and ugliness, but Bai Zhong didn't want to ruin the beauty in Ying Shu's heart, so he accompanied her for a walk outside.

The residents of the city were very curious when two people with oriental faces appeared on the street.

However, they knew that envoys from the East had recently come to Jerusalem. They were just curious about Bai Zhong and did not do anything.

After walking around, they went back to rest.

The next day.

As soon as Bai Zhong got up, he saw the maid arranged by the city lord bringing the toiletries and breakfast.

After they finished using it, the city lord came again.

"Excuse me, Eastern Envoy, are you still getting used to it?" the city lord asked with a smile.

Bai Zhong nodded and said: "Very good, thank you City Lord for the hospitality, but when will Tours come back?"

The city lord said: "There is still a long way to go from here to Rome. I would like to ask you two to wait here for a few days. We can go to Rome soon."

"That's fine!"

Bai Zhong did not refuse.

After being polite to the city lord for a while, Bai Zhong left the city and went to the camp.

"Wu Anjun!"

Gengwu and the others quickly stood up and saluted.

Bai Zhong asked: "Are you getting used to it here?"

After coming to such a far place, ordinary people may be acclimatized, but they won't. The adaptability of warriors is much stronger than that of ordinary people.

"We can adapt, and there is no acclimatization." Gengwu said excitedly, "The people here are quite polite, and they brought us a lot of meat last night."

After leaving Xianyang, they hadn't tried eating so much meat for a long time.

Last night, the Rui warriors were completely satisfied.

Bai Zhong smiled and said: "Is it that easy for you to be bribed by a meal of meat?"

"Of course it's impossible!"

Gengwu shook his head and added: "But I am very free now, and I miss the days when I could fight."

Bai Zhong also wants to go to war. When he gets to Rome, he will see if he can help Rome fight the war. He can fight Macedonia or Carthage and continue to earn merit points.

"In the future, our army may reach here."

Bai Zhong lowered his voice and said.

When Gengwu heard this, he immediately became excited.

Fighting from Daqin all the way to here is such a long distance and extremely challenging.

They Iron Eagle Rui Warriors like this kind of challenge the most.

Bai Zhong reminded: "Next, you should also pay attention to the city lord and others. Someone should come to contact you and pretend not to understand what they say."

Gengwu also studied ancient Greek with Baizhong before setting off.

Although I am not very proficient, it is not a problem to exchange a few words and have a chat.

"Wu Anjun is saying that these Westerners will plot against us?"

Gengwu suddenly became filled with murderous rage and had the urge to massacre the entire city.
